DO NOT use pinesol/lysol with herps
I just want to make sure everyone knows not to use Pinesol or Lysol when cleaning out your herp cages. The oily film left behind to prevent the spread of bacteria is fatal to cold blooded animals. I just learned this fact today in my zoo procedures course. I've never seen any mention of the use of these products on the site. I just wanted to let everyone know. If we could ad a sticky message to the top of the help me forum listing every product (pine shavings, no pest strips, lysol/pinesol, etc) not to be used in conjunction with herps that would help out the new herp keepers. And if there is a message well then I'm blind or just lazy because I did not look.
